Reverse description The deity Shiva stands facing in the center of the field, rendered frontally in a hieratic style characteristic of Indo-Parthian coinage. In his left hand he holds an upright trident, while his right arm is extended outward. To the left of the figure appears the distinctive Gondopharan dynastic monogram or symbol. A Kharosthi legend encircles the design along the periphery, conveying the ruler's full royal titulature.
